We have decided on a last minute Vaca to WDW. Dec 15-17 I don't want to get there and not be prepared! What do you recommend for a 6,8,10 yo to get the most out of our vaca. 2 boy 1 girl. Which parks do you recomend. I want it to be rememorable! Tickets?”

Mandy,

I am so excited for you! I would recommend that you spend some serious time in the Magic Kingdom, as it is the classic Disney Park.

Are your kids thrill riders? Hollywood Studios is great for that - I love Rock N Rollercoaster! And Toy Story Mania, while not a thrill ride, is just a really great ride period! Animal Kingdom has a few thrills as well, with Expedition Everest and Dinosaur, and Kilimanjaro Safaris is just soooo cool!

Have you looked at any guidebooks? If not I'd recommend that you pick one up and let the kids look through it and decide what they really want to see and do. It will be much easier for you to make a touring plan when you know what 'must' be included! The same goes for tickets, though honestly I'd probably try to purchase park hoppers and squeeze in as much of the magic as you can. You can always sleep later, right? ;)
